Rejected petition Make the largest library in Europe - Birmingham - open 24/7
Birmingham is home to the largest library in Europe. Why are the main library opening hours restricted to six hours a day? Why can I never find a place to study? One would think that it would have sufficient study spaces for both students and members of the public. This is not the case.

I'm currently sitting on the floor typing up this petition because I'm furious that I cannot find a place to revise for my A level exams; let alone find a place to sit. I'm also running out of time... it's closing at 5pm.
